Jurvelle in France and Rodellar in Spain are two Pyrenean villages situated opposite each other. Live moves slowly in the French village where the few inhabitants have been cattle farmers from time immemorial. Some diversion is created by the holiday-makers, who are usually only passing by, and the rare pedlar. For the French, the Spanish village means clear water and a panorama of live trees. For the Spanish, the Pyrenees are important, that is the mountains and the discovery of new sports, despite the fact that the summer season is too short. Some of the inhabitants talk about thei different lives in the two villages.
